how soon did you wait to have sex after birth? parents who had stitches.
3 weeks. It hurt a little but not bad. 2nd degree tear. Probably should've waited longer but I have no self control. Called doctor the next day and he said it was okay as long as I wasnt tearing stitches.
I had stitches with my 1st and 4th.. first time I waited 9 weeks second 5 weeks
only asked cause i gave birth on the 22 in a friend was telling me to go for it cause she waited three weeks
@boysmommy22, i guess it would depend on how bad your tear was and if you feel fully healed. My stitches were still there at 3 weeks pp with my most recent baby. You know your body and should know when your body is ready.
It’s been a month and I STILL haven’t and am too scared to honestly, freaked out about getting pregnant immediately again 😂I love my son to death but knowing how fertile you become is a little terrifying
6 weeks. I had second degree tearing in the front and back. It still hurt for a few weeks after that so I took it slow for a good 10 weeks.
6 weeks minimum. It’s not just about you perineal tear. Your uterus has an open wound where the placenta detached.
The first time 3 months. This time probably soon since I just got cleared.
Two lifetimes!! I only tore w my first. 16 years ago. It was terrible!!!
